UNIXCMD

 

The UNIXCMD compiler directive causes creation of an object code file containing the specified command. The instruction uses the following format:

 

 

UNIXCMD

["{command}"]

 

Where:

command

Optional. A command line that is added to the object code file.

Flags Affected: NONE

Note the following:

  1. If no {command} is specified, "plb" is used.

  2. The '-c' PLBCMP command line option will override any UNIXCMD directives found in a program's source. The compiler will give an appropriate compiler warning if a UNIXCMD is being ignored.

  3. When this instruction is used, all 8.7 and later runtimes will recognize and properly execute the program. However, if the program is executed by a runtime for a prior release, a U12 runtime error will occur.
